據天然氣資訊12月16日消息稱，能源資本越南公司(ECV)是一家成立于2015年總部位于美國的項目控股和開發公司，旨在為越南的私人投資提供平臺。公司宣布泰國 B.Grimm Power 和西門子能源已加入其財團，在越南南部平順省的Mui Ke Ga (MKG)開發一個液化天然氣發電項目。

B.Grimm Power 和 ECV 已簽署聯合開發協議（JDA），B.Grimm Power 計劃在項目財務結束時投資約 2 億美元股權。B.Grimm Power 在越南擁有超過20年的業務經驗，在運營總容量超過2000兆瓦的燃氣發電廠方面擁有豐富的經驗，這將確保項目的順利實施以及可靠高效的電力生產。

西門子能源將為該項目提供先進的技術設備，將更清潔的燃氣引入仍以煤炭為主的地區，從而減少全球碳足跡。此外，西門子能源正在評估以建設股權參與該項目，該項目總成本估計為17.5億美元。

B.Grimm 董事長兼總裁 Harald link 博士表示：“B.Grimm Power 很高興與 ECV、西門子能源和 Maius 合作，按時交付MKG液化天然氣項目，我們歡迎電力發展計劃VIII的及時發布。我們對應用于該項目的創新風險緩解方法非常有信心，該方法是越南能源轉型的基石。正如國際公認的那樣，液化天然氣是煤炭的一種更清潔、更經濟的燃料替代品。”

Lewis說：“與B.Grimm Power和西門子能源的合作加強了 ECV一流的液化天然氣發電項目，該項目將為越南提供關鍵的能源安全。除了世界一流的工程能力和效率，B.Grimm Power 和西門子能源通過利用全球關系和經驗來提供交鑰匙解決方案，從而采取全面的開發方法。”

越南正在完成其電力發展計劃VIII (PDP8)，預計該計劃將包括ECV在胡志明市外主要制造中心附近的Mui Ke Ga (MKG)的液化天然氣發電項目。ECV于2019年與平順省人民委員會簽署了一份諒解備忘錄，以開發一個完全私營的、多階段的液化天然氣發電綜合設施，并于 2020 年獲得總理的原則批準。

MKG項目將使用300萬噸/年的液化天然氣生產高達3600兆瓦的電力。該項目將利用 FSRU 為進口 LNG 提供最經濟的解決方案，并將通過海底管道連接到陸上電力綜合設施。該項目一期工程預計于2025年投產。

LNG-to-power project to be developed in Vietnam

Energy Capital Vietnam (ECV), a US-based project holding and development company established in 2015 to serve as a platform for private investment into Vietnam, has announced that B.Grimm Power of Thailand and Siemens Energy have joined its consortium to develop an LNG-to-power project in Mui Ke Ga (MKG), Binh Thuan Province, in Southern Vietnam.

B.Grimm Power and ECV have signed a Joint Development Agreement (JDA), and B.Grimm Power intends to invest approximately US$200 million in equity at financial close of the project. B.Grimm Power’s more than 20 years presence in Vietnam and expertise in operating gas fired power plants with a total capacity of more than 2000 MW will ensure a smooth project implementation as well as reliable and efficient electricity production.

Siemens Energy will deliver advanced technology equipment into the project to reduce the global carbon footprint by bringing cleaner burning gas to a still coal-dominated region. Further, Siemens Energy is evaluating to participate with construction equity to the project, which has an estimated total project cost of US$1.75 billion.

“B.Grimm Power is excited to work with ECV, Siemens Energy and Maius to deliver the MKG LNG project on time and we welcome the timely issuance of Power Development Plan VIII,” said Dr. Harald link, Chairman and President of B.Grimm Power. “We find great confidence in the innovative risk mitigation approach applied to the project as a cornerstone for the Vietnamese energy transition. As internationally recognised, LNG is a cleaner, cost-effective fuel alternative to coal.”

“Partnering with B.Grimm Power and Siemens Energy bolsters ECV’s first-class LNG-to-power project that will provide critical energy security to Vietnam," Lewis said. “Beyond world-class engineering competence and efficiency, B.Grimm Power and Siemens Energy take a comprehensive approach to the development by leveraging global relationships and experience to deliver turnkey solutions."

Vietnam is finalising its Power Development Plan VIII (PDP8), which is expected to include ECV’s LNG-to-power project in Mui Ke Ga (MKG) near key manufacturing centres outside of Ho Chi Minh City. ECV signed an MoU with the People’s Committee of Binh Thuan Province in 2019 to develop a fully private, multi-phase LNG-to-power complex and received in-principle approval from the Prime Minister in 2020.

The MKG project will produce up to 3600 MW of power using 3 million tpy of LNG. The project will utilise an FSRU to provide the most economical solution for importing LNG and will connect via subsea pipeline to an onshore power complex. The first phase of this project is slated to go into operation in 2025.
